           Summary: libssp.so missing from target
           Product: buildroot
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: Other
        AssignedTo: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org

   Estimated Hours: 0.0


ext-tool.mk isn't copying libssp.so from the toolchain to the target.

When I build a system using an external crostool-ng/uClibc toolchain, ssh won't
work because libssp.so is missing from the target:

 # ssh
 ssh: can't load library 'libssp.so.0'

In the past, to get a working system, I've had to tweak ext-tool.mk to copy
some additional libraries (including libssp) from the toolchain to the target. 
It's probably time to actually try to get ext-tool.mk fixed instead of
continuing to tweak it locally. :)

--- Comment #1 from Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> 2013-11-14 00:18:26 UTC ---
The external toolchain logic makes the assumption that the SSP support is
provided by the C library (and therefore part of the usual libc), and not
provided by the compiler (in which case it is a separate libssp.so).

If you have examples of toolchains for which SSP support is provided by a
compiler library, please let us know so we can improve the external toolchain
support. In the mean time, due the age of the bug, I'm closing it.
